This was whittled down to a compatibility wrapper around the more
flexible git_prompt() in 1cb0134f (refactor git_getpass into generic
prompt function, 2011-12-10), waiting for the final callers to go
away. That happened in 791643a8 (imap-send: use git-credential,
2014-04-28) when imap-send learned to use the credential interface.

Our custom implementation of git_terminal_prompt has many
advantages over regular getpass(), as described in the prior
commit.
This also lets us implement a PROMPT_ECHO flag for callers
who want it.

This will allow callers to specify more options (e.g.,
leaving echo on). The original git_getpass becomes a slim
wrapper around the new function.

This is currently in connect.c, but really has nothing to
do with the git protocol itself. Let's make a new source
file all about prompting the user, which will make it
cleaner to refactor.
